The etymology of the word punctuation leads us back to its remote ancestor, the Latin punctus~ a "point" in the sense of the dot which we now call a "period" because it marks the end of a period. Latin did not require punctuation as our modern languages do, because the forms of words kept their construction clear independently of word-order. Even the period did not seem necessary until fairly late, since the termination of a sentence was shown by the verb which came regularly at the end.

We lived in the house now for only three months but already the children come. We are careful, living in India, because we are not prepared to battle the diseases strange to our bodies and so we must sometimes inhibit our love for the children until we are stronger. We are strangers to the country but not to the hunger and yearning on the faces of the children. The children are all from one family, and our favorite is the wild little five-year-old girl named Sakri. But aside from this slight preference we laugh and run with her two older …

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Surely there has never been another time in which it was so important for people to be able to read-and to read-as it is today. Reading is, or should be, a part of nearly every experience of children, young people, and adults. Valuable though the other media of communication are, they are necessarily inadequate for full coverage: of reporting events, of expressions of opinion, of findings of investigations, of descriptions, of recounting of experiences. Only in books are we likely to find the inclusive, extended coverage necessary for adequate analysis, interpretation, and application. Never before have we been confronted with …
